The rumor mill has been buzzing for the past 24 hours with news that Robert Downey Jr. will be reprising his role as Tony Stark (Iron Man) in Captain America 3. Variety and The Hollywood Reporter, both had articles up that were widely linked to indicating that this was in the final round of negotiation or already a done deal.

Marvel released an extended teaser for their upcoming film, Captain America: The Winter Soldier. In it, we see more of the scene from the first trailer where Cap jumps out of the plane without a parachute. What we learn is that they are engaging a ship taken over by pirates. The pirates are led by none other than Batroc! Captain America: The Winter Soldier comes to theaters April 4th.

If you liked the teaser with Black Widow under interrogation, you may just like this new teaser for Marvel’s upcoming Avengers movie. In it, we see Loki (Tom Hiddleston) locked up in a cell having a conversation with Nick Fury (Samual L. Jackson).

Fans who saw Captain America were treated to a preview of things to come, as is now Marvel tradition. However as this teaser build off the events of Thor and very greatly off the events of Captain America, I’m embedding the footage after the cut to avoid spoiling anyone. Click at your own risk.

If you have any interest in seeing The Avengers, it would be worth it to see Captain America, as its probably the best Marvel Studios movie since the original Iron Man started this march toward the team up 3 years ago.[Read the rest of this entry…]
